Why Shutting Down Cell Service Is Not Just Against The Law, It's a
Really Bad Idea

http://j.mp/qQbLMh  (Public Knowledge)

    "More than seventy years ago, Congress made a choice to take that
     option away from local authorities. It conferred jurisdiction on the
     FCC and the state Public Utility Commissions to provide oversight, and
     gave everyone a federally protected right to access the phone network.
     That right applies to all phone networks, whether wireline or
     wireless. Somebody might want to point that out to the BART Directors
     tomorrow."
